I realized that Shopify has a bigger market cap than Uber and has grown like wildfire in the last few years.
Looks like a great company with a good culture and a great product.
- cheeze 7y agoAgree. Only heard positive things and the CEO seems like a pretty straight dude.
- pixelbash 7y agoAs a developer on the blunt end of their theme development I have questions. That said, they solve some difficult problems and no one else comes close at the moment.
- simplyinfinity 7y agoCare to elaborate what those problems are?
- pixelbash 7y agoWell for one thing they seem to have have quite a comprehensive tax system which they keep updated. Something I realised could be valuable when dealing with a Californian client on a different Ecom platform. Another one is a reasonably powerful but client friendly interface, which sounds easy but almost all other platforms fail in some way. Lastly it isn't totally bad for headless ecommerce, at least if you dont look at the accounts system too hard.
- swalsh 7y agoShopify has become the default platform for eCommerce for people who have their own marketing channels (let's be honest, the main draw of selling on Amazon is they are a default shopping search engine). I've noticed a lot of "influencers" with strong brands have started shopify stores to sell clothing lines etc. If you can get eyeballs outside the Amazon search results, shopify is probably where you're directing them.
